Learning: Why do we learn? What motivates us?

In this one, I talk a bit about motivation types and how we can struggle with parts of the language learning process when we reach certain points of fluency. Additionally, I bring up some interesting ways that hobbies and fandom can make us invested in learning languages, as well as the proper ways we should go about appreciating a language and its culture. 

I'd love to know if you have any other examples for languages that you've come to know from your hobbies, or maybe languages that you're dying to know just for the sake of one of your interests. Make sure to follow the pod on Twitter and Instagram @lingmenapod and thanks so much for listening <3
